Hi Everyone,

I hope you all are well.

As I make plans to go to Korea, I'm thinking about what medical options there are. Would you guys mind telling me how American citizens with insurance get medical care?

(While I'm a healthy guy already, I always like to do check-ups, know how to get vaccines, anti-biotics, etc.).

Thanks

If you're working here you will have insurance through your workplace.

Same way as in America. If you're hurt go to a hospital if you want to get a check up or whatever ask your fellow teachers for a recommendation for a local doctor that preferably speaks English.

I think he's asking how he can be seen by a health care provider.

Yes, I'm asking how to get seen by a doctor for a check-up and the necessary vaccines.
